I give it an 8. Could have done with fewer jump scares and more creepy fear.
Wasn't sorry to lose the teen gangbang though.

I actually gave this one a vote of 7 . The following of this IMPO of course . The individual character development was good except for the Pennywise Clown character - not very effective . Also the setting and music was good too . However the whole vibe of this film to me felt too much like a deliberate homage or parody type to past horror films - not a very original concept ( not that I mind homages or parodies in certain past films but it just didn't work well for this film ) . Thanks barkingbaphomet for your subject post .

7/10. It started out absolutely fantastic with that gruesome and terrifying opening. Then, it just kinda fell into the average horror formula.
It was good overall, though. I'm excited for Chapter II.

Very much looking forward to seeing this, but it's not playing in my country yet (Israel).

Very tempted to give it a 10/10 I liked it so much. Very well directed with some beautiful scenes and a surprisingly effective cast. The actors in this film were so much better than I expected. And I gotta admit I was kinda moved by the overall experience. If you like scares, this one has plenty, even if a few were telegraphed. Ok, more than a few but they were nicely done. The problem is I can't help but compare this to Stand By Me. When I first saw that film, it was like a punch in the gut. It still gets to me. I have to give that a 10/10 and I give It! a solid 9/10.

8/10 and I agree with a couple of the previous points, that it could have used a few more jump scares after a terrific and intense opening scene. It just sort of laid there the rest of the way, and despite being well-acted, directed, and written, wasn't particularly scary or suspenseful.

Mediocre movie with some creepy characters but not much else going. Part 1 of the 1990 mini-series would probably lie around 7,5-8 out of 10.

I found it mediocre too. Nothing worked for me. However, I'm going to reread the book and then watch the film again afterwards to see if that helps change my opinion.
3/10

8.
Had great scares and performances, but could have used more "funny/malevolent Pennywise" instead of just evil. The first scene with George was excellent, but he never did that sort of thing again. Maybe in the sequel when he is tormenting the adults.
It also was missing the "We are stronger together" vibe that was so prevalent in the TV movie.

7/10 8/10 One of the best horror remakes for sure. Technically it's not a remake, since the 1990 adaptation was a mini-series.

7/10. Solid and met my expectations but didn't exceed them.
